Nailed on Everton 3 points tonight - and @ 4/5 the bookies are being strangely generous.

Very noble of you to respond to your own post Robbo.Bookies know best
Makes no difference if we start winning,Rocka.It used to be hope that killed us...
Now it's the waiting.
Oh aye Cloughie... I'm very confident of wins. Very confident. It's the FFP that could be the problem.Makes no difference if we start winning,Rocka.
The result tonight was fairly good-I think it’s just about still our own hands if we can find some wins.
Yes,Rocka-but if they hammer us then they must surely do the same with Everton.Oh aye Cloughie... I'm very confident of wins. Very confident. It's the FFP that could be the problem.
Knowing our luck, the more we win... the more they'll take off us.
Absolutely.Yes,Rocka-but if they hammer us then they must surely do the same with Everton.
We need to start winning.
The thing that gives me hope is there are very few games that we've lost recently where we've been played off the parkYes,Rocka-but if they hammer us then they must surely do the same with Everton.

Just hope it doesn't go to VAR.Because it’s more likely „grand old“ Everton get all their points back and a five point bonus as an apology, and Forest get a ten-point deduction for their temerity, and another five points deduction for their criticism of match officials.
Aye... Shoulda gone down back in '94.Really hope Everton go down-don’t think they will though. They’re a dismal team to watch, but set pieces get them through. Another one tonight, it all pretty basic stuff.
Saw the stats as someone posted them here - we're third best for shipping chances (xg against) in Nuno's games, which is pretty impressive, especially when conceding three goals a week for lots of it. While that points to xg being a bit shit as a stat (shipping three goals with Los xg against) it shows that If we can just sort the set piece thing out we are good to go at the back.Did anyone hear the guy on Forest Focus talking XG stats? Forest are near the top for both lowest XG against and highest XG for since Nuno took over . I know it could be considered a bollox metric but it does give some indication that we have played really well since Nuno has been here. Keep playing as we are and we should be fine, even with points deduction.
Aye… his name is Mark Southern. Talks a lot of sense and knows his stuff. I like listening to him.Did anyone hear the guy on Forest Focus talking XG stats?

3rd best shot conversion rate under Nuno, apparently, so we're not doing badly on that frontAlso great we are making chances, though I want to see us become more ruthless there. It's hard to criticise Elanga given his input, but he could have had a hattrick on Saturday (admittedly one of which he made himself). I'd love see see us become one of those prem teams who takes four out of their five chances week in/out. Seems to be what the really good teams do.
Now I don't like to Cooper bash and hate the overuse of xG but the numbers as they say do not lie.3rd best shot conversion rate under Nuno, apparently, so we're not doing badly on that front

It’s the old adage that sometimes attack is the best form of defence I suppose.Now I don't like to Cooper bash and hate the overuse of xG but the numbers as they say do not lie.
SCs main approach since promotion was defend first and catch out when possible so not surprised he was midtable for that xG against. I think the fact Nuno has improved not only on that base but on expected goals too speaks volumes.
Those odds may change today if the outcome of Everton’s appeal is announced.I am surprised at the bookies giving any odds on Forest or Everton, given both could have significant points deductions.
Not sure why Everton are considered less likely to go down than us, but OK.
